After you select your videos, you can customize the menu text, menu, and slideshow.                                                                                  

4. Click Customize menu. From here, you can change the font used, pick a video that runs in the background of the menu, and even add music.

 

5. once you’ve customized the menu and the slideshow to your needs,you are ready to burn a DVD. Click Burn.
